Fw: HIER on bone tissue

Jennifer
For bone I do my HIER (Citrate, TRS, etc) in a waterbath rather than either
the microwave or steamer. I need to compensate though by increasing the time
they spend in the waterbath, but the upside is that I lose a lot less
tissue.
As for the AR solution, the particular antibody your staining for will
dictate which AR solution you use. You will need to assess your antibodies
to see which retrieval solution gives the most optimal result.
